1 The Catechism of the Catholic Church says:
“God is always bigger than our language, and the Bible itself gives us permission to address God using many metaphors," The Catechism of the Catholic Church says: “God is not male or female, he is God.”

2 Isaiah 49:15 (NIV) “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! "Just as God is our Father, so God is also our Mother" "Our precious mother, Jesus". "Our Father desires, our Mother operates and our good Lord the Holy Ghost confirms". Julian of Norwich -14th-Century Revelations of Divine Love

3 Matthew 23:37 (NIV) Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.

4 Luke 15:8-10 (NIV) 8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins[a] and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbours together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’ 10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

5 ‘If I Had Known’ by Marie Curran    If I had known what I know now, I wouldn’t have been silent, If I had known the counting clock, I’d have asked more questions, If I had known I’d lose your face, I’d have taken more pictures, If I had known the little left, I’d never have let you go, If I had known what I know now, Would it really be any different?
